In doing so, the County gained significant synergies with data sharing, but it requires <br />resources to perform the initial conversion and to support the ongoing maintenance of this data as <br />part of this additional service. <br />GIS Data Synchronization <br />In 2009, OCIT implemented real time synchronization of GIS database between Orange County GIS, <br />Chapel Hill GIS and Carrboro GIS (OC currently provides this service for Hillsborough) for all streets <br />and addresses, greatly increasing levels of timeliness & accuracy for addressing data, while ensuring <br />more reliable and effective collaboration between our important municipal partners. <br />BOCC Meeting Support <br />IT is now providing pre- meeting setup support for all BOCC meetings, including A/V equipment setup, <br />public network availability, streaming video services and any other items that arise in preparation for <br />the meetings. <br />Online Pet Registration <br />The IT Department deployed a new Internet based tool with which the public can register their pets. <br />Online Recreation Registration <br />The IT Department provides a web -based service for the public to sign up for parks and recreation <br />classes, team sports and recreational facilities. <br />PEI <br />
